Peruâs Ex-Spy Chief Sentenced to 15 Years
EFLA court has sentenced Peruâs former spy chief Vladimiro Montesinos to 15 years in prison on charges that he paid television station owners millions of dollars to run favorable news about ex-President Alberto Fujimori. I thought that was an acceptable practice in South America. Chavez is different though. He uses the state-run media for his propaganda and intercepts the cash from the state-owned oil company before it reaches the bank (where the legislature might spend it.) Democracy Chavista-style might be called Maoism someplace else. Posted by: Super Hose 2004-06-29 |
